The following slides is a compilation of Basic Flies used throughout the Rocky Mountain Rivers, Ponds and Lakes created by some very talented fly fishermen, both past and present. This is not all inclusive as that would include 100s upon 100s of flies to present. Its best to consult your local fly shop for what works best and at what time of the year. Hatch Charts are available on-line that will give you a 90% solution to the pattern, size, color, variation, and hatch dates of the fly you need to have for a particular river or lake. They can easily be printed and taken with you and are put together by pretty knowledgeable anglers. Fly-fishing websites offer updated fishing reports from Guides on what's hatching and in what pattern, size and color to assist you in making your outing successful. Books, I have found, can offer in-depth information about insects and the flies that are used to imitate them, written by the experts. Ive tried to include as many recommendations from all of these sources in this presentation. One last thing, to understand the fly you should have a general knowledge about Entomology and the particular insect you are imitating and its life-cycle. This is included in this presentation and well worth understanding. Remember, this is a guide and will not include everyones favorite pattern. Basic fly patterns can be varied using different materials. Some flies can serve more than one purpose as well discuss. This is an interactive presentation, so please ask questions.

Terrestrials
Terrestrial insects are not aquatic but tend to spend a lot of time in the meadows and banks surrounding bodies of water. Due to wind, hanging on a tree a little to close to the water, or a clumsy jump, many of them end up trout food. This is a list of most common Terrestrials.
